Is Waite feeling alright, how many games is that in a row and he hasn't injured himself or got reported? ::)
That would be because he's playing like a dog. As soon as he shows some form then the injury or report will re-surface. Not that we've got that many games left.

I was actually wondering whether he was injured or had a niggle. He hasn't been moving the best lately. If only we could get the best out of him for almost an entire season and have less gap between his great games, and his more ordinary efforts. Developing a player is not always getting far more performance from a player but also bridging the gap between a and b grade games they play.
This digital world is too much for us insects to understand.

Knowing Waite he will kick 8 in winning side and get rubbed out for the first final.

But seriously news just in Reiwoldt out with a serious back injury. Win this and perhaps the Reiwoldtless Tigers await us!
Ignorance is bliss.

ONWARDS AND UPWARDS!

Duigs desperately unlucky. Showed he wasn't out of place last week. Ellard has probably taken his place looking at those ins and outs, and I would rate Duigan clearly ahead of Ellard, especially with the brutal attack on the ball Duigan showed last week, which is probably Ellard's forte.

sorry to see NickG go, but there is enough talent there to blow Port away!
Talent doesnt always win you matches, our side it proof. Good aTEAMS always win matches. Port are a good TEAM and will win comfortably.

Farewell game or chance to save his spot for Davey ellard?

Nah, reckon Davey is one that Mick will keep.

Gives 100% every time and is a good soldier.

Well I hope so anyway.

Sadly, no opportunity for ROK... reckon that is papers stamped. Pt or Croweaters will pick him up.

Why would you say that?

He's just strung ,what, 3 or four games for the season and been BOG once. Nick Graham played a lot more.

AAMI is a big ground, Port are a fit side, ROK is short of conditioning,MM is a conservative coach.

I reckon he's safe unless we do something VERY STUPID.

Damo reckons Jeffy missed last week for disciplinary reasons. Was meant to attend the game the week before, got to the ground, couldnt find a car park and went home.

Man, I hope you're right. I thought he deserved an emergency gig for this week, at least. Again, I hope you're right.

Turned it over a fair bit vs Essendon and needs to pick up the pace of the game.....I'm all for playing kids and I like Graham as I think he can be a smart footballer along the lines of Dane Swan but
Port are very good around the ball and MM probably feels a player like Ellard who tackles well and can stick to a man is more value than Graham who doesnt have a defensive side to his game yet.
Walker is a big in and should allow Gibbs time on the ball and down forward....both Murphy and Gibbs have to step up and lead the team this week..

Agree about Nick Graham - looks skilled enough and should be OK next year but I think the AFL pace does worry him a bit atm - in fact I think he actually said on his interview a couple of weeks ago that he was surprised by it.

Ellard may now be retained for next year, but still could be used in a trade I guess. ROK definitely looks to be gone.

Robbo keeps his place - a bit surprising IMO - he was cr@p v. the Dons, obviously MM sees a role for him v. Port A.

Just no room for Duigs who I thought played OK last week.
Reality always wins in the end.
